      Hi Johnpoz,
      I wasn't aware of all the default rules on the pfsense box. apparently they come up when you activate a service. and indeed, it would be nice if default rules would be visible in the rule sets.
      Used as I was to shorewall where I had to open up every specific port. That's why I call myself a newbie to pfsense, but learning as hell. ;-)

      I will disable the specific rule tonight and add some testing.

      thanks, Fons

        that would solve your issues if you have rouge dhcp server on the network.  Just the that the rule is not required and keeps the listing cleaner.  No reason for duplicate rules, etc.
